The buzzing is most likely caused by a bad ground or running the patch cables too close to the power wire. Also, turn your gain down.
everything is hooked up right, i have no idea why it wont work, only thing i can think of is maybe a bad power cable but it looks fine to me
Yes, but did you hook up a remote turn-on lead? You've made no mention of it when discussing your cables. The amp needs the following:
1 - unswitched power source from battery (your 8 GA cable) 2 - ground (GA should match power cable 3 - remote turn-on lead (switched power source from head unit, tells the amp when to turn on) 4 - signal (your patch cables) 5 - connection to speakers that are being amplified
